How about this from the Port of Portsmouth (what do those idiots know, eh!? I know a bloke on twitter who says different!)

"For anyone departing from Portsmouth in the coming days, you'll be reassured to know that operations are currently running smoothly."

How's this for a deal? If the queues are the same in a weeks time, I'll admit it's Brexit related. If they aren't, then you admit that perhaps it is to do with something not related to Brexit? After all, we will still be outside the EU in a week but perhaps they will have sorted out staffing issues in France? Deal?
Yawn indeed.

You are cherry picking quotes from the Port of Dover Chief Exec. I gave you one above saying Brexit was a cause of delay.

Of course the queues aren't going to be constant. The Dover infrastructure (and several other ports or points of exit) cannot cope with traffic spikes (after several years of Covid quiet) in combination with the additional post-Brexit checks.

You claim no-one has made this point and that only Dover is affected. Completely wrong on both counts.
